The Black Exterior Of This Home Leads To A Pink Kitchen Inside

The exterior of the home features a double-gable roof, timber cladding in a dark colour, and metal cladding on the roof.

Paul Archer Design has shared photos of a home they completed in Wivenhoe, England, for an artist who wanted a light-filled interior with room to work and to entertain.

The exterior of the home features a double-gable roof, timber cladding in a dark color, and metal cladding on the roof, while the interior has different ceiling levels, creating a lower ceiling towards the front, with the house opening to a double-height vaulted space to the rear.

An unexpected design detail in this contemporary home is the kitchen with its pink cabinets, which are complemented by white countertops and floating wood shelves.
